NOTE 1:

CN7: Front panel connector.

When using AT mode in the system, the pin5-6 of header CN7 must be shorted. If using ATX

mode in the system, the pin5-6 of header CN7 should connect to a Push-Button-Switch.

NOTE: When using AT mode, the monitor will not display any message and

the system will not auto-shut down after soft-off. In this case, please cut the

PSU’s power off or remove PSU’s power to cut the system power off.
